PROJECT OVERVIEW
Reeves County is developing a Safety Action Plan to address existing and future traffic safety deficiencies through education and proven measures in order to create safer, more equitable mobility system for all. The plan will include a holistic strategy to reduce or eliminate roadway fatalities and serious injuries.
Reeves County received federal grant funding to develop a plan as a part of the US Department of Transportation’s bipartisan Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program. The Safety Action Plan will analyze safety needs, identify high-risk locations and factors contributing to crashes, prioritize strategies to address them, and serve as a guide for future implementation of the improvements and funding requests.
MISSION STATEMENT
To enhance the transportation, safety, and mobility of the Reeves County community by reducing roadway deaths through collaboration, education, and action.

Construction on improvements identified in the Comprehensive Safety Action Plan are not yet programmed for design and construction. The Comprehensive Safety Action Plan sets the stage for the County to apply for construction funding to fix the issues identified by the plan. Identifying what is wrong is step one and then implementing the solutions is step two. The application period for construction grants occurs every year, so once the County’s Comprehensive Safety Action Plan is completed and adopted, the County can immediately start applying for construction grants once those application periods are available.
